Town of CochraneQMS Operational Plan

The original Water Treatment Plant was constructed in 1947 on the west side of Spring Lake. Due to poorsub-surface conditions, the structure, constructed of concrete foundation, masonry walls and a woodenroof was subjected to some large settlements after construction was completed. The new WaterTreatment Plant was commissioned in 1995 on the east side of Spring Lake.

The source of the raw water is from the existing wells #5, 6 and 7 located on the west side of Spring Lake.Submersible pumps in each of the deep wells pump the water through a 300 CDPVCwater main to the

new water treatment plant on the east side of Spring Lake.

In the WTP the raw water is pre-chlorinated and discharged into a covered head tank, complete with avent pipe. By pass of the head tank is available for maintenance purposes. It diverts the raw water directlyto each clarifier.

From the head tank the raw water is fed by gravity into the 2 clarifiers through independent piping. Thisallows taking one clarifier at a time out of service for maintenance purposes. Lime slurry for softening andpolymer (silicate) for coagulation is added in the clarifiers. The softened water flows over the clarifier weirinto pipes on its way to the re-carbonation tank where CO2is added for pH adjustments. From the re-carbonation tank, the water (with adjusted pH) flows by gravity into the filters, where final filtrationoccurs.

The filter cells can be filled, air scoured, backwashed and drained independently which allows for acontinuous water treatment process during any maintenance work on each filter cell. The filtering waterdrains into reservoir cells 1 and 2, which is separated by a sluice gate. Normally, the sluice gate is open. Ifclosed, the reservoir can be maintained one at a time by simply diverting the discharge of the filteredwater into either one of the two cells.

The clean water from the reservoir cells is pumped into the system by three (alternating) high lift pumps,through a 250 ‘DSS discharge header within the building and a 400 Cl)treated water PVCmain (yardpiping). Magnetic flow meters are used for measuring the pumped raw water, treated water andbackwash water volumes. The collected lime sludge in the clarifiers is periodically blown down through asystem of pipes and valves into concrete lagoons located outside of the plant where it thickens fordisposal. The thickening of the sludge is achieved through drainage and regular pumping of the watercollected in the adjacent CMP (Corrugated Metal Pipe) wells, as well as through dewatering of the sludgeby draining the supernatant water into a Supernatant Equalization Tank (SET),within the WTP through asystem outlet to the existing sewage treatment plant, depending on the results of the supernatantsampling as per the MOE Certificate of Approval.

The backwashed water from the filters can be discharged either into a backwash equalization tank locatedwithin the WTP or directly into the lagoons. From the backwash equalization tank, the backwash watercan be pumped into any of the three lagoons or it can be recycled back into the head tank.

QMS Operational PlanTown of Cochrane

The uppermost overburden unit, where present, is the Silty Clay Aquitard. This unit is comprised of more than 3 to37 m of overburden (mostly silt to clay till and marine sediments) and has an average hydraulic conductivity, K,ofapproximately 7 x 10 ‘7 m/sbased on MOE well records and hydraulic testing analysis (Golder Associates Ltd., 1987).

The Upper Sand Aquifer lies below the Silty ClayAquitard, where present. This unit has thickness ranging from 4 mto 49 m based on MOEwell records. Based on hydraulic testing by Golder Associates (1987), DillonConsulting Limited(2003) and MOE well records, it is assumed to have an average Kof about 1 x 10 '5 m/s.

The deepest of the overburden units, where present, is the Lower Sand and Gravel Aquifer. This unit has a fluvio-glacial origin and fines upwards to eventually grade into the Upper Sand Aquifer. It is primarily located in the deeperbedrock valley and is generally absent outside of these valleys. It has a thickness that ranges from 0 m outside of thebedrock valleys to greater than 38 m at the municipal supply wells near Spring Lake (according to MOEwell records).This unit has an average hydraulic conductivity, K,of approximately 1 x 10 '3 m/s, based on MOEwell records, recordsof water losses during drilling as part of this study and detailed hydraulic testing in Cochrane (Trow, Dames andMoore, 1990; Lotowater Technical Services |nc., 2003).

The Bedrock Aquitard has an assumed thickness of 20 m. This unit forms the bottom of the conceptual model and,due to its low hydraulic properties, acts as a hydraulic barrier.

An average Kof 1 x 10 '7 m/s is assumed for this unit, based on results from the regional compilation of MOE waterwells records, detailed studies at East Bull Lake (Raven et al., 1987), Chalk River (Raven, 1986) and professionaljudgment. The bedrock below the Bedrock Aquitard will be less permeable than the Bedrock Aquitard and for thepurpose of the WHPA modeling is assumed to be effectively impermeable.

Porosity values of the Silty Clay Aquitard, the Upper Sand Aquifer, and the Lower Sand and Gravel Aquifer areestimated at 0.3, 0.3 and 0.25, respectively based on previous experience and widely accepted literature values(Freeze and Cherry, 1979; Domenica and Schwartz, 1990). Porosity of the Bedrock Aquitards is comprised ofpermeable fracture porosity and less permeable matrix porosity. Precambrian Aquitard porosity is likely to rangefrom 0.0001 to 0.01, with a best estimate of 0.001, based on hydro geologic and tracer testing of similar bedrockformations at Chalk River (Raven Beck Environmental Ltd. 1994), and literature review (Domenico and Schwartz,1990).

Reverse time-of-travel (TOT)capture zones for the municipal wells were defined based on 50-day, 2-year, 10-yearand 25-year groundwater travel times to each well. The WHPAs for the Cochrane municipal water supply wells aredefined based on these delineated capture zones. The capture zones for the Cochrane municipal wells generallyextend to the extents of the deep sand and gravel aquifers in which they are located. The 50-day TOT capture zonesare generally oval-shaped areas with a radius ranging from 120 to 175 m, centered on the municipal wells. The 25-year TOT capture zone (the maximum extent of the WHPA) for the Cochrane municipal wells extends up to 3600 min the southeast direction along the axis of the Lower Sand and Gravel Aquifer. This capture zone extendsapproximately 1000 to 1600 m in an east-west direction, generally limited by the extents of the Lower Sand andGravel Aquifer.

Based on historical pumping and water level records compared with an estimate of the amount of recharge to thewater supply aquifer, the Cochrane municipal wells pump approximately 30% of the available water. This suggeststhat an increase in water demand with future population increases should not cause a groundwater mining problemdue to increased extraction rates.

Town of CochraneQMS Onerational Plan

The pressure entering the distribution system typically varies from 80 to 102 psi, and is capable ofmaintaining pressure in the distribution system on average between 60 to 80 psi at all locations underpeak flow conditions. During fire flows, system pressure may drop to 40 psi.

The Town of Cochrane implemented the numbering and colour coding of our hydrants in 2011.Hydrants are color coded in accordance with NFPA 291 article 6.6.6.1. ”Hydrants shall be colour-codedin accordance with NFPA 291, ‘Fire flow testing and Marking of Hydrants" Using the Hazen—Wi|liams

formula we were able to determine the co|our—codingof the hydrants.

Hazen-Williams formula is as follows Q. + (1, x h,"0.54hf"0.54

Qf is observed flow in IGPMh, is the drop in psi from the static pressure to the desired residual base|ine(20psi)

0 hfis the drop in psi from static pressure to the residual pressure that was measured during theearlier test.

Also as per Subsection 6.6.5.8: "Arecord of the hydrant operation, as described in article 6.6.5.7, shallbe kept in conformance with article 1.1.2.1” Records must confirm yearly inspection, and that thehydrant was located where expected and was found operable. Yearly inspection must establish that thehydrant is supplied by water. During our yearly inspection we conduct flow testing and flushing of thehydrants. A record of this information is kept at the Water &Wastewater OfficeA diagram of the distribution system is presented below in Figure 1.

8. RiskAssessment Outcomes

The Director of Infrastructure Services, Supervisor, ORO, DWQMSRepresentative and Asset Coordinator along withany volunteer Water Treatment Plant Operators, shall form a Risk Assessment Team to identify: the potentialhazards and hazardous events which could affect the water system; the control measures to address the hazards;the Critical Control Points and control limits;and the associated methods of monitoring critical limits and respondingto deviations.

As the first step of the Risk Assessment, the RiskAssessment Team shall review hazards and hazardous eventsassociated with the Distribution System. The monitoring, control measures and emergency procedures orcontingency plans which are available are identified. The risks associated with the hazards and hazardous eventswill then be assessed by the team on the basis of likelihood, severity and detectability, based on the tables below.The reliability and redundancy of equipment is considered when assigning ratings to the hazard and hazardousevents.The rating for the likelihood, severity and detectability is then added to give an overall level of risk for each hazardor hazardous event. Allhazards or hazardous events which have an overall risk rating ofgreater than 9 are consideredcritical and are associated with a critical control point. The identified risks are documented in AppendixA of this planand the procedures to be followed are outlined in the Operational Procedure Manual.

Every year, the QMS Rep will review the risk assessment and ensure that the information and assumptions remaincurrent and valid. Every 3 years the QMS Rep will assemble the Risk Assessment Team to conduct a new ris

kassessment.

14 Review and Provision of Infrastructure

15 Infrastructure Maintenance, Rehabilitation and Renewal

16 Sampling, Testing and Monitoring

The water infrastructure for the Town of Cochrane consists of a water distribution system, and a water tower. Thedistribution system is relatively dated and sections are in need of replacements/repairs.

The need for infrastructure renewal is reviewed on an annual basis and is prioritized and acted on accordingly. Theneed for new infrastructure and infrastructure renewal willbe an agenda item for the annual Management Review.The adequacy of infrastructure to operate and maintain the DS may be assessed based on Water Dept. staffsuggestions, water quality trends and consumer complaints. The Director of Infrastructure Services willcommunicate to the owner, during the annual Management Review meetings, the infrastructure deemed necessaryto operate and maintain the Town of Cochrane DS.

The following routine planned maintenance is conducted on the Town of Cochrane distribution system: annual valveinspection/exercising, annual hydrant flushing, bi—annual hydrant inspection/flagging, winterizing and annualpressure testing. Allrecords are maintained and kept in their appropriate binders at the Water &Wastewater Dept.office. Allplanned maintenance is scheduled and communicated to staff by the Director of Infrastructure Servicesand Supervisor.

Water main or other equipment replacement is conducted on an as-needed basis. Unplanned maintenance isconducted as required. Allunplanned maintenance activities are authorized by the Director of Infrastructure Servicesand/orSupervisor or acting Supervisor. Allrecords are retained at the Water & Wastewater Dept. office.

Once per year, the Compliance Supervisor prepares a summary of the infrastructure maintenance, rehabilitation andrenewal programs. The Director of Infrastructure Services and Supervisor specifically look at unplannedmaintenance work to determine if additional planned maintenance or infrastructure replacement is required. Thesummaries will be communicated to the owner during the yearly Management Review meeting.

This procedure describes the sampling and monitoring activities for the Town of Cochrane Water Works. Allsamplingis in accordance with O. Reg. 170/03.

16.1 Sampling and Testing

On-Site Sampling

The date, time, location and results of all in-house samples are recorded on the corresponding Test Sheet. Eachsample location has a tap in the lab room indicating its sample location. Allsamples are taken at least once a day.
